Great Joe West will be here to make sure we know that Joe West is an umpire in the WS. Joe West. Joe West. Also, it looks kind of like Game 1 at least will be rained out. Which way do they rotate? In other words, will West be behind the plate at any time in the series? Angel Hernandez went from behind the plate to RF, so if that holds he's at the end of the line and available behind the plate for game 7. -
Not to mention, choose reading threads on a message board over watching.

My wife has a work thing Tuesday and won't be home until after the first couple innings. So we're having the babysitter put the kids to bed. The question is do I go straight to a bar from work and wait until they are asleep before going home, or sit in my living room and ignore the kids as they go to bed like some kind of Mad Men dad?

Maybe I'm just old and dead inside, or maybe I'm haunted by the fact that we were bad in 2012, but this stuff just doesn't feel as transcendent as it did when I was a kid or even in my 20s. If they win in game 5 while I'm out doing other things, I'll check my phone and see that they won and be happy. I'll watch all the replays and buy some merchandise and read the threads. Hell, if any of the games I'm home for turn into a five-hour extra inning monstrosity, I might just wait till the morning for the end of those too. I'm sorry for your loss. Of your soul.

Week 8: Vikings at Bears MNF on ESPN
jersey cubs fan replied to jersey cubs fan's topic in Other Sports
Well the Vikings looked awful yesterday although they're still 5 point favorites against the Bears. Minnesota has a great defense but it would be interesting to see if Cutler can do anything against them, because the Bears should be able to keep the score within reach. -
I don't like "saving" Lester for the theoretically easier matchup. Lester's pitch counts were low early in the playoffs and 108 last game wasn't too much, and he's on normal rest.

Was that from bbc?

MESA, Ariz. -- Take a guess which Chicago Cubs player manager Joe Maddon said this about: "[He's] one of those dudes who can get up at three in the morning and hit anybody's anything. He's that good of a hitter."

Hell, it is the first time they've been in the NLCS or better in back to back years since 1906-1908 Huh?

I don't think that at all. Like I said, i hope Baez continues to Baez, but to my eye Rizzo didn't look too happy (especially not the one in Game 5) ntil it ended an an out. Wasn't Baez the one who mirrored a Russell throw from SS too last year? I'm sure Rizzo appreciattes Javy, but its not really the time to get cute , hence he can laugh when the out is made. You are confusing lovable Latin players

I think I have to

Reverse Simpsons?

He is on the 40. He went on the 60d DL but that just opens an exemption for 41

Security concerns would be part of it. Doubt they want thousands of people standing in the streets outside the ballpark loitering in one spot. The games at Wrigley are on the weekend, so a lot of folks are going to be at the bars drinking (which presumably have expanded some since 2003). Wrigley also has a couple thousand more seats/thousand. Can't drink in the street. I think there's also probably a few less diehard national fans wanting to travel in just to stand near the park since there's no WGN America games anymore (and that network has greatly declined in popularity since the 90s). wait, what does wgn have to do with number of fans stupidly standing on the street for a playoff game?
-
Do balls just not get to the streets as often thanks to bleacher expansion? the expansion and the boards i think have really cooled that. but, again, those people were seemingly there just to be there. the Cubs being in the postseason used to be unique enough to justify just being there on the street. It's happened enough now that those weirdos figured out how unenjoyable that must be.
